Including the time spent struggling to escape, Edward has been inside the Kawa Great Forest for at least more than half a year, and he has a relatively good understanding of the thoughts of the beastmen living in the vast jungle in the south.
In the forest, there is only one thing that is most important, and that is food. Some beastmen even value food more than grain.
Before the arrival of the cold winter, due to the rapid population expansion of beastmen in the previous nine months, most tribes would find it difficult to survive the desperate white cold winter relying solely on previously stored harvests.
To obtain enough grain and to clean up excess population, a month before the cold winter, many beastmen would come out of the forest in groups and attack the Bloody Border.
